Charlie Sheen: 'I was in total denial'

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Charlie Sheen admitted that his whole “Winning” catchphrase last year wasn’t entirely accurate. “Clearly, a guy gets fired, his relationships are in the toilet, he’s off on some f—ing tour, there’s nothing ‘winning’ about any of that,” Sheen told the magazine. “I mean, how does a guy who’s obviously quicksanded, how does he consider any of it a victory? I was in total denial.”

The actor, who will next be seen in the FX comedy Anger Management, premiering June 28, also included his ex-wife Denise Richards (who will be making a guest-appearence on Anger Management) in the interview. “He and I are like best friends now. Confidants,” said Richards. “He tells me everything.” Although Sheen was quick to add, “We sleep in separate rooms.”

On alcohol, Sheen was direct: “I mean, the sh-t works. Sorry, but it works. Anyway, I don’t see what’s wrong with a few drinks. … [My drink is] vodka. Straight, because I’ve always said that ice is for injuries, ha ha.”

No word yet on whether or not his imbibing will affect production on Anger Management like it reportedly did on Two and a Half Men, but his alcohol update was one of – but hardly the most shocking – of revelations Sheen shared; he also talked foot fetish. “I’ve not dated girls because of their feet, just the length of certain toes and the shape of where things should be and they’re not,” said Sheen. “Hammertoes are bad. And the second toe being too long? That’s bad, too.”

Sheen is clearly ramping up the publicity train; the question is, will it work? Are you planning on checking out Anger Management?
